  • the first sensor 550 outputs 0V and the second sensor 560 outputs 1.4V, so that the control IC 530 receives the voltage of 1.4V.
  • the control IC 530 outputs the low signal corresponding to this voltage level, and thus the switching IC 510 cuts off the output voltage output of 13V.
  • the voltage output is cut off, so that overcurrent can be prevented from being applied to the power output line 810, the ground line 820 and the SMPS 400.
  • the posterior end of the switching IC 510 has 0V even though the SMPS 400 outputs the voltage of 13V.
  • the first node 811 is placed at the posterior end of the switching IC 510, and therefore the first sensor 550 does not output any voltage.
  • the voltage of 5V output from the SMPS 400 is adjusted to about 1.4V at the third node 823 by the two voltage dividing resistors 561 and 563.
  • the voltage of about 1.4V is continuously supplied to the control IC 530 through the second sensing line 840 and the control input line 850.
  • the control IC 530 uses the voltage of about 1.4V as an operating power, and keeps the switching IC from cutting off the voltage output. Thus, the control IC 530 can operate even though the voltage output is cut off by the switching IC 510.
  • the voltage applied at the first node 811 is still maintained at the ground level since the switching IC 510 cuts off the voltage output. Further, the first sensor 550 does not output any voltage to the sixth node 836.
  • the sequential voltage drops in the second to fifth nodes 822 to 825 are also released in the ground line 820. That is, all the second to fifth nodes 822 to 825 have the voltage of 5V.
  • the voltage of 5V is applied from the third node 823 to the sixth node 836 and input to the control IC 530.
  • the control IC 530 outputs the high signal as receiving the voltage of 5V, and the switching IC 510 allows the output of the voltage of 13V.
  • the first node 811 As the voltage of 13V is allowed to be output, the first node 811 has the voltage of 13V.
  • the voltage of 13V is dropped down into 5V by the first sensor 550, and thus the voltage of 5V is finally input to the control IC 530 together with the voltage of 5V from the third node 823.
  • the switching IC 510 Since the voltage of 5V is continuously input to the control IC 530, the switching IC 510 outputs the voltage of 13V through the power output line 810.
  • the voltage of 13V can be controlled to be selectively output according to whether or not the power output line 810 and the ground line 820 are short-circuited.
  • FIG. 7 is a control flowchart showing an example of the operation.
  • an initial state is not the short-circuited state but the normal state.
  • the SMPS 400 outputs the first voltage and the second voltage.
  • a user connects the connector 30 to the connector receptacle 600.
  • the sensor 520 senses whether the first voltage is dropped to the ground level. If it is sensed that the first voltage is dropped to the ground level, the second voltage is also dropped from the first level to the second level at operation S130. At operation S140, the sensor 520 senses this voltage drop and thus determines it as the short-circuit state.
  • the controller 530 cuts off the output of the first voltage according to sensing results. If the output of the first voltage is cut off, the controller 530 is operated by the supply of the second voltage at operation S160.
  • the SMPS 400 In the operation S120, if it sensed that the first voltage is not dropped to the ground level, the SMPS 400 outputs the first voltage to the connector 30 at operation S170.
  • FIG. 8 is a control flowchart of an example of such an operation.
  • the second voltage recovers from the second level to the first level at operation S210, so that the second voltage having the first level can be input to the controller 530 at operation S220. If receiving the second voltage having the first level, the controller 530 allows the first voltage to be output.
  • circuit configurations and the level changes are described in detail, but are not limited thereto. Alternatively, these are variously changeable in realizing the present inventive concept.
  • the supporting unit 20 for rotating the main body 10 is described as a component that receives the power from the main body 10, but it is not limited thereto.
  • the present inventive concept can be applied to any external device that can be connected to the main body 10 via the connector 30.
